My_Summer_Term_Work Ralf Lindau Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007
Projects & Studies I • Of course teaching ( 0 k€) • Do students need to know about Curvature Terms to understand the Coriolis force? • Geoland (100 k€) • Calculation of global soil moisture fields from AMSR • End of project 31.03.2007 • Final report (financial & scientific) • GRAS-CMSAF-SAF Study ( 25 k€) • Validation of Layered Precipitable Water from Champ (GRAS-SAF) and ATOVS (CM-SAF) by radiosondes • Report delivered, but pending because of suspicious biases in CMSAF retrieval Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007
Projects & Studies II • OMDI III and IV ( 36 k€) • Proposal for a future study (1. Dec 2007 to 30. June 2008) about error covariances of satellite retrievals • Advantages of Iterative Lindau Kriging compared to ordinary Block Kriging • LandCaRe (166 k€) • Stand-alone runs of TERRA on 2.8 km resolution driven by 18-km LM-Consortial runs Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007
Susp.TPW bias of ATOVS - 0.82 mm - 3 % + 7.08 mm + 27 % No NCEP + 3.67 mm + 14 % The bias using GME as first guess (standard) vanishes for „No first guess“ and is doubled, if NCEP is used. GME Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007
